Real Plot or Not: Shark Week Edition
1w ago00:58:05Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailWelcome to Films and Fermentation's Shark Week Special, where we're testing not just our movie knowledge, but humanity's ability to distinguish between actual shark movies and fever dreams that somehow got greenlit. In Real Plot or Not: Shark Week Edition, we'll read outrageous shark movie plot summaries, and our contestants have to decide whether Hollywood really made them... or whether we made them up after one too many tropical drinks. Considering there are movies featuring ghost sharks, avalanche sharks, and sharks that apparently ignore the laws of biology, this game is far more difficult than it has any right to be. So grab your favorite beverage, keep your hands out of the water, and join us as we discover that sometimes the scariest thing in Shark Week isn't the shark... it's the screenwriter.

‘Murica: The Movie | 32 Films Enter. One Movie Leaves (Season 11 Finale)
Jul 701:12:23Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailHappy Fourth of July from Films and Fermentation! This week, we're settling one of the most gloriously unnecessary debates in cinematic history by crowning the most American movie ever made in a 32-film tournament packed with underdogs, explosions, baseball, freedom, questionable decisions, and at least one bald eagle in spirit. Will Rocky go the distance, will Top Gun buzz the tower, or will an unexpected Cinderella story steal the championship? Expect heated debates, questionable seeding, and passionate arguments over whether excessive patriotism or simply grilling hot dogs should count toward a movie's final score. Grab your favorite beverage and join us for 'Murica: The Movie, where the only thing more competitive than the bracket is the people filling it out.Don’t forget to drop us an email at filmsandfermentation@gmail.com or visit linktree.com/filmsandfermentation to find all our social media and podcast links.

The Career of Tim Curry
Jun 3001:13:10Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailThis week on Films and Fermentation, we're celebrating the wonderfully weird, wildly talented, and utterly unforgettable career of Tim Curry. From a sweet transvestite from Transylvania to a terrifying clown lurking in the sewers, Curry somehow managed to traumatize and delight entire generations at the same time. We'll revisit his most iconic roles, debate his greatest performances, and probably spend an unhealthy amount of time quoting movies that shouldn't be as endlessly quotable as they are. Whether you know him as Dr. Frank-N-Furter, Pennywise, Long John Silver, Wadsworth, or the Lord of Darkness himself, Tim Curry has left fingerprints all over pop culture. So grab your favorite beverage and join us as we celebrate the man who proved that chewing the scenery isn't a flaw when you're the most entertaining person in the room.Don’t forget to drop us an email at filmsandfermentation@gmail.com or visit linktree.com/filmsandfermentation to find all our social media and podcast links.

The Great Sports Movie Draft with guest, Matt Brooks
Jun 2301:20:46Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailThis week on Films and Fermentation, we're trading movie reviews for a draft board as we assemble the ultimate roster of sports movies. From underdog boxers and miracle hockey teams to baseball dreams and football legends, no athlete, coach, or inspirational locker room speech is safe from selection. Will strategy prevail, or will someone panic and spend a first-round pick on a movie they haven't actually watched since cable television was king? Expect fierce competition, questionable scouting reports, and enough sports clichés to fill an entire Hall of Fame wing. So grab your favorite beverage and join us for The Great Sports Movie Draft, where the only thing more competitive than the movies is the people arguing about them.Don’t forget to drop us an email at filmsandfermentation@gmail.com or visit linktree.com/filmsandfermentation to find all our social media and podcast links.

Movies that are better drunk
Jun 1601:25:02Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailThis week on Films and Fermentation, we're tackling one of cinema's most important questions: are some movies actually better after a few drinks? From cult classics and glorious train wrecks to action movies that somehow become masterpieces at beer number three, we're ranking the films that improve with a little liquid assistance. We'll debate whether this is a testament to the movies themselves or simply evidence that our standards become increasingly flexible as the evening progresses. Expect questionable opinions, highly scientific analysis, and at least one movie that somehow jumps from a 5/10 to an 11/10 after two Stouts. So grab your favorite beverage and join us as we explore the fine line between cinematic genius and "you know what... this is actually amazing."Don’t forget to drop us an email at filmsandfermentation@gmail.com or visit linktree.com/filmsandfermentation to find all our social media and podcast links.

Duel of the Scores: Ranking the Best of John Williams
Jun 901:20:29Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailThis week on Films and Fermentation, we're diving into the legendary music of John Williams and attempting the impossible: ranking our five favorite scores from a career that basically soundtracked modern cinema. From sharks and space wizards to dinosaurs, superheroes, and archaeologists with questionable workplace safety habits, Williams has spent decades living rent-free in our collective ears. We’ll debate which themes soar highest, which scores deserve more love, and whether humming the Imperial March automatically improves any argument. Expect nostalgia, hot takes, and at least one moment where someone accidentally conducts an imaginary orchestra while holding a beer. So grab a drink and join us as we celebrate the man who somehow convinced entire generations that French horns possess magical powers.Don’t forget to drop us an email at filmsandfermentation@gmail.com or visit linktree.com/filmsandfermentation to find all our social media and podcast links.

Recasting Special: One Movie. One Recast. Unlimited Bad Decisions
Jun 200:57:07Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailThis week on Films and Fermentation, we’re taking some of our favorite movies of all time and committing the ultimate act of cinematic chaos: recasting them with modern actors. Each of us secretly picked one legendary film we wish we could experience again for the first time, then rebuilt the cast from scratch like Hollywood executives with too much confidence and a dangerous amount of caffeine. Will our choices be inspired masterpieces… or the kind of decisions that make the internet start a petition? Expect surprise reveals, terrible casting arguments, and at least one moment where someone says, “Wait… you cast WHO as Indiana Jones?” So grab a drink and join us for an episode filled with nostalgia, movie debates, and enough fan-casting to make Reddit spontaneously combust. 🎬🍻Don’t forget to drop us an email at filmsandfermentation@gmail.com or visit linktree.com/filmsandfermentation to find all our social media and podcast links.

Movies So Good We Wish We Could Unsee Them
May 2601:49:58Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailThis week on Films and Fermentation, we’re talking about the movies we wish we could experience again for the very first time. You know the ones: the films that stunned us, broke us emotionally, melted our brains, or left us sitting silently through the credits questioning reality and possibly our life choices. From shocking twists to unforgettable finales, we’re revisiting those magical first-viewing moments that can never quite be recreated… no matter how many times we rewatch them. Expect nostalgia, heated debates, and at least one argument over whether seeing The Sixth Sense unspoiled was a once-in-a-generation cinematic experience. So grab a drink and join us as we desperately attempt to bottle that fleeting feeling known as “movie magic before the internet ruined everything.” 🎬🍻Don’t forget to drop us an email at filmsandfermentation@gmail.com or visit linktree.com/filmsandfermentation to find all our social media and podcast links.
